<h3>I'm going to do the first scenario:</h3>
Otra vez mi hermano ha hecho un desastre, ¡no se puede estar quieto! Mi hermano es muy desordenado, por eso no deja todo como estaba. Él sabe muy bien que si entra a mi habitación tiende que dejar todo como estaba. La cama esta hecha un desastre, igual que toda la habitación. En la habitación estaban todos los libros ordenados en las estanterías, pero ya no. Él no le importa mucho mi habitación porque no es suya, pero eso no le da derecho a desordenarla. Mi habitación no tenía nada de basura, pero ahora tiene mucha. Mi habitación tampoco tenía ropa sucia; es de mi hermano, que la deja aquí como si nada. Después tengi yo que limpiar toda la mugre que ha hecho mi hermano. Este hermano tiene su propia habitación, ¡que desordene la suya!
Now I am <u>going to translate</u> the text in English so that you understand it:
Once again my brother has made a mess, you can't sit still! My brother is very messy, that's why he doesn't leave everything as it was. He knows very well that if he comes into my room he has to leave everything as it was. The bed is a mess, as is the entire room. In the room all the books were arranged on the shelves, but not anymore. He doesn't care much about my room because it's not his, but that doesn't give him the right to mess it up. My room didn't have any garbage, but now it has a lot of it. My room also had no dirty clothes; It belongs to my brother, who leaves it here as if nothing happened. Then I have to clean all the dirt that my brother has made. This brother has his own room, let him mess up his!
This is a text that contains 4 affirmative sentences and 4 negative sentences. Some sentences use <u>stressed pronouns</u> to abbreviate the subject.
An affirmative phrase in Spanish is that it affirms something while a negative phrase in Spanish denies something, it almost always has the adverb "<u>no</u>".
